  2. 11. Pancreatic Endocrine Tumors and GIST - Clinical Markers, Epidemiology and Treatment

    Author : Sara Ekeblad; Britt Skogseid; Peter Stålberg; Barbro Eriksson; Rajesh Thakker; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Medicine; Pancreatic endocrine tumor; Gastrointestinal stromal tumor; Neuroendocrine; Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1; Prognostic factors; Temozolomide; TNM staging; O6-methylguanine DNA methyltransferase; Growth hormone secretagogue receptor; Ghrelin; Medicin;

    Abstract : Pancreatic endocrine tumors and gastrointestinal stromal tumors are rare. Evidence regarding prognostic factors, and in the former also treatment, is scarce. We evaluated the survival and prognostic factors in a consecutive series of 324 patients with pancreatic endocrine tumors treated at a single institution. READ MORE

  4. 12. Long-wave ultraviolet radiation (UVA1) and visible light : therapeutic and adverse effects in human skin

    Author : Desiree Wiegleb Edström; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Ultraviolet-A; visible light; p53; p21WAF-1; bcl-2; CD34; port-wine stains; mycosis fungoides; dye laser; photodynamic therapy.;

    Abstract : We studied the effects of repetitive low-dose UVA1 radiation and visible light in normal sunshielded skin, using immunohistochemical staining for p53, p21WAF-1, bcl-2, Ki67 and cyclin A. An increased expression of Ki67 after UVA1 and visible light were observed as a sign of increased proliferation. READ MORE

  5. 13. Carbonate Ions and Gastric Cancer

    Author : Roy Ehrnström; Malmö Patologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Medicine human and vertebrates ; ODC; COX-2; inflammation; Wistar rats; duodenogastric reflux; Medicin människa och djur ; proliferation; gastrojejunostomy; carbonate ions; Experimental gastric cancer;

    Abstract : Nearly one million new cases of gastric cancer are diagnosed annually throughout the world. Even though the incidence has fallen dramatically in recent decades, this disease is still the second leading cause of cancer death in a global perspective. READ MORE

  6. 14. Prognostic and predictive factors in Vietnamese breast cancer : a comparison with Swedish patients and effect on survival

    Author : Thang Vu Hong; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Breast cancer;

    Abstract : Breast cancer is a leading cause of cancer death among women in Western and Asian countries. Previous studies showed that Asian and African-American patients more often had poor tumor prognostic factors than Caucasian patients. There are however only few reports on tumor prognostic factors and survival in Vietnamese breast cancer patients. READ MORE

  7. 15. Transcriptional gene signatures : passing the restriction point for routine clinical implementation

    Author : Arian Lundberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Uncontrolled cell growth and cell division are central to the process of tumorigenesis and a number of gene expression signatures have been developed based on genes that are involved in the cell cycle. Notably, gene expression signatures are used extensively in breast cancer research to examine the disease at a molecular level to describe tumour progression, treatment response and patients’ survival.
